Formerly known as Inverted, Immersed
In Blood have released what is to be a newfound Gothenberg-style
mixing the renowned Swedish death metal formula with US thrash! Of
course, being from Sweden, there isn't much that comes out of Sweden
these days that I do not like in some way, shape, or form. Viewing
their song titles, they have enough aggression built up to last a
millenium or more. Speaking of which, aggression is pretty much the
ingredient on "Killing Season" in its entirety. "Letum
Non Omnia Finit" is one of my favorite tracks as close as the
others come to that. I can actually hear a bit of the band, Seance,
in Immersed In Bloods' music. The only let down for me is the knack
for repetition in their song structures, which isn't necessarily bad.
A lot of bands likewise, will use repetition to get points across
to people without the technical storyboard hassle. Whatever suits
you best I suppose. While still retaining little room for error however,
the Swedish quintet has a very modest and clear direction ahead of
them. If they get some bigger gigs set-up with bands like Hypocrisy
or In Flames, these guys will definitely get more eyes looking their
way (well duh... haha). They are without a doubt, one of the brightest
newcomers out of Sweden.
